よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "bower" with "bowler" (a type of hat) or think it is a common everyday word for any shelter. In modern English, "bower" is mainly used in literary or poetic descriptions and usually suggests a natural, leafy place, not just any roof or building.
意味
leafy, shaded garden shelter
コロケーション
leafy bower
|shady bower
|secluded bower
|garden bower
|woodland bower
|romantic bower
類義語
arbor (Very close in meaning; often a built structure in a garden, while a bower can be more natural and poetic.)
|
gazebo (A more modern, man‑made garden structure, usually with a roof and open sides, less poetic than bower.)
対義語
open field (Suggests an exposed, unsheltered outdoor space, the opposite of a small, shaded shelter.)
